History

Early History

The early proto-Pekysko peoples first migrated into what is now central Arcanstotska around 10,000 BCE. After discovering agriculture, the ancestors of the Pekysko settled in the Yulia Valley between the Mubovsk mountains to the west and the Katnyka mountains to the east.

First Arcanstotskan Republic & Chevalier Wars

Following the establishment of the First Arcanstotskan Republic on October 11, 1807, the nation aligned itself with the Callisean Republic in the Wars of the Callisean Republic. Under Stanislav Stepanovich Vedenin, declared Consul of the Republic on October 11th, Arcanstotskan armies joined with Chevalier in his conquests of northern Craviter. After the combined forces of Arcanstotska and Callise were forced to retreat from Prydania in 1818, WIP armies entered Arcanstotska and laid siege to Siloyev. Vedenin was killed in battle and his generals formally capitulated on WIP, 1818. The monarchy was restored in Arcanstotska on WIP 1818, with Arcanstotska thereafter switching sides in the conflict.

Second Kingdom of Arcanstotska & The Underground Republic

The Kingdom of Arcanstoska was restored under the kingship of Alexei III Aksakov.

Revolution of 1848 & Arcanstotskan Civil War

On August 18, 1848, a protest secretly organized by the Underground Republic, was gunned down by the Royal Guard. Riots broke out across the capital city over the following days. Royal Army regiments loyal to the Underground Republic stormed various government buildings throughout Siloyev, including the Royal Palace. Alexei III was captured by republicans and later executed alongside his wife and three children. The republican soldiers, under the orders of colonel Sergei Kariyev, began to break up the rioting in Siloyev which had caused considerable damage to the city.

On October 2, Duke Seveliy of Gorbunov announced his attention to restore the Kingdom of Arcanstotska with himself as King in the Koretsk Declaration. Over the course of the following weeks, sporadic skirmishes broke out across the Yulia Valley. Republican and monarchist forces clashed for the first time in the First Battle of Liyev on November 26, resulting in a monarchist victory. The monarchists continued to win a string of victories, pushing all the way to the city of Aleski on December 22.

The Battle of Aleski lasted for three days and resulted in a disastrous defeat for the monarchists. After the battle, Gorbunov was forced to retreat back to Liyev. After losing Liyev on March 13, 1849, Gorbunov officially surrendered to the republicans, bringing the Arcanstotskan Civil War to a close.

Second Arcanstotskan Republic

Following the republican victory in the civil war, the provisional government reorganized itself into the Second Arcanstotskan Republic on August 2nd, 1849, with colonel Sergei Kariyev as the nation's first president.

Politics & Government

Governance

According to the Constitution of 18XX, Arcanstotska is a federal presidential constitutional republic divided into three separate branches of government. Each branch is restricted by an enshrined system of checks and balances which prohibit any governmental office or branch from becoming powerful enough to threaten democratic authority.

• Legislative: the bicameral National Assembly made up of the Senate (which represents the nation's constituent states) and the Chamber of Representatives (which represents the people directly). The Senate is comprised of 14 seats (two for each constituency) and the Chamber of Representatives is comprised of 543 seats, with one seat equating to 100,000 people. The National Assembly has the responsibility to adopt federal law, declare war, approve of and propose treaties, and power of impeachment over the President.
• Executive: the President is the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces and appoints members of the National Executive Cabinet (subject to approval from the National Assembly) who administer and enforce federal laws and policies. There is also the National Council, comprised of the head officials of the nations WIP federal executive departments, such as the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Defense. Their job is to advise the President's decisions on any subject relating to the duties of each member's respective office.
• Judicial: the National Constitutional Court, the National Supreme Court, and lower federal courts, whose judges are appointed by the National Assembly with Presidential recommendation, have the responsibility of reviewing laws and overturning laws they deem unconstitutional.

The President of the Second Arcanstotskan Republic (POTSAR) is elected directly by the people via the popular vote for a maximum of two consecutive five-year terms, after which he/she will no longer be capable of serving any more terms in office.

Political Parties

The National Assembly operates on a multi-party system, and a political party must meet a membership requirement of 100,000 people in order to receive a seat in parliament.

Since the 1950's the leading political parties have been the liberal National Fraternity Party, the Social Democratic Party, and the Conservative Union of Arcanstotska. Other notable parties include the Syndicalist Front, the progressive Peace & Love Party, the National Green Party, the Union of Arcanstotskan Communists, and the right-wing populist Arcanstotska First League.
